Keeper,
Thanks for your thoughts - they all came up at the meeting. The "pair trawls" that were suggested will use only one buoy and it would be set further out from the shore. Remember the problem is single pot setting so a two pot trawl will have one marker as opposed to two. Floating lines were discussed and apparantly regulations do not allow their use in RI and eventually everywhere in the near future because of the whale problem. If things need tweaking we're prepaired to make alterations.
